Sergio Perez F1Sergio Perez says he is aiming to win the world championship next year when he switches to the McLaren team.

"My target is to win the championship already next year with [McLaren]," Perez said.

Oh yeah, sure. A driver, age 22, with 38 GP experience is going to win his first WDC in his first year in McLaren. Well, at least he is self-confident. once upon a time there was a driver in McLaren who used to say: "this will be my year" - every year.

Turun Sanomat writes that Lauda will replace Haug and take over his job as motorsports chiefhttp://www.ts.fi/moottoriurheilu/f1/426 ... elakkeelle (in Finnish)
So, he is not going to be just the head of the supervisory board. Heikki Kulta's headline tells it all "Lauda's entering takes Haug to retirement" (in Finnish: Laudan tulo vie Haugin eläkkeelle). Or does it.

Caterham Team still considers who you will it take to team up with French Charles Pic for the next season. Along with Kovalainen for the second seat of Caterham are competing at least Finnish driver's last season's team mate Vitaly Petrov, as well as team's test driver Dutch Giedo van der Garde.

- These are such sensitive things to talk about at Friday night on live TV, Kovalainen laughed.

- I have a really good relationship with the team. Although the results have been pretty mediocre in three years, good relationship has survived. I believe that both would like to see things to continue, Kovalainen added.

Kovalainen again made it clear that he will not be any pay driver. The driver from Suomussalmi understands why Caterham is considering to hire a money bringing driver in his place.

- The market has gone to the direction that teams have certain pressure, Kovalainen said.

Kovalainen admitted that losing the seat would be "insanely tough disappointment."

- I have not even thought what I would do then. At present, however, we seek to ensure that we are there. Training sessions are running and with full throttle for that things will continue as normal, Kovalainen said.
